BYOB

It's a snowy day and I thought that I was going to get to knit in the store. Not. I sewed in ends on some one's scarf. It really is time for her to learn how to do it herself but I don't see it happening in the near future.

The scarf is knit in Classic Elite Liberty, double strand on 7mm needles. She used 8 balls but if you wanted a narrower scarf you could make it with 6 balls.

The BYOB from Namaste arrived yesterday. I took one home last night so that Beth can get organized. She has a knitting chair. There are a few projects and all her supplies piled on it. Maybe this will help.

Sorry my pictures are a bit out of order. I should have shown the binder first and then the pages but this is how they downloaded and I didn't want to start playing around and mess things up.

INTERCHANGEABLE PAGE:

This page was originally designed as a page to store interchangeable needles, hence the name, but we've found through testing that it's also great for 5" DPN sets, crochet hooks, darning needles, and more! Each page features 24 slots total (the page is double sided so you get 2 for 1!), each measuring approximately 1 inch across and 3" high. There are 12 slots on each side of the page, positioned 6 on the top half and 6 on the bottom half of each side. Each slot is fully reinforced with elastic strap behind the slot in order to ensure that all sizes fit snugly.

Page measures approx. 12.5" x 6.5"

My 15mm, Knitter's Pride tips above and a set of interchangeable needles to the right.

There is an elastic strap in each slot that holds the needles tight. They aren't going anywhere.

 LONG STRAIGHT PAGE:

This page has 12 slots, 6 on each side, which measure 1" across by 6" high. Each slot is fully reinforced with elastic strap behind the slot in order to ensure that all sizes fit snugly. This page is ideal for organizing sets of straight needles and can also house sets of 7" DPNs

Page measures approx. 12.5" x 6.5"

I used this page for double points, crochet hooks and a pen. You can never find a pen when you need it.

The inside cover has two mesh slots for little items and the back cover has a one big mesh pocket.

MESH PAGE:

This page features 2 mesh zipper pockets each measuring approximately 6" x 7" and it's ideal for storing interchangeable needle cables, circular needles, pens, tape measures, notions, you-name-it!

Page measures approx. 12" x 7"

Mom made chili today - enough for us too - and I picked it up on the way home. She has to make two pots because one of us won't eat beans. And it isn't me. Thanks mom. It was very good and now we don't have to think about making dinner.
